This week’s hot news is that we haven’t actually got any records out. Well not until mid-October when Coin-Op release a mini-album. What is happening instead is that half of our roster seems to be going on tour next week. In fact kicking off on either the 11th or 12th of September The Parkinsons Simple Kid (x) is greater than (y) and Lapsus Linguae (with ‘80s Matchbox B-Line Disaster) all roll out and about on their respective tours. Full date info is on the panda website or (if we’re lucky) the press.

If the staff in your local record emporium looks a bit blank when you mention any of the above groovy noises worry not! Put down that Puddle Of Mudd album and instead come postal shopping with the fierce panda posse. All cheques should be made payable to fierce panda and sent to PO Box 21441 London N7 6WZ. Please add ?1.00 per order sent.

Oh and we have some lovely sky blue Death Cab for Cutie t-shirts at ?10 each. e-mail mrbongopanda@aol.com if you’re interested
